Wasteland Weekend, The Festival Inspired by ‘Mad Max’

Wasteland Weekend, The Festival Inspired by ‘Mad Max’

In case you missed it the last time we talked about it, Wasteland Weekend is an outdoor festival in the desert that allows you to live out all your Mad Max post-apocalyptic fantasies. For Mike “Sweet Lips” Orr, a life support aquarist at an aquarium in Vegas, that means outdoing himself with a new, ridiculous creation every year. First it was a Camaro. Then it was the Borderlands Bandit Technical truck. The third year was the Exxon Valdez they used in Waterworld. Wasteland, Another Roadside Attraction from Mel Films focuses on Sweet Lips’s story, but it also helps paint a picture about just how awesome Wasteland Weekend is.
